I'm gay and matched with a guy who was looking for "a long term relationship", to "settle down."
His previous relationship was with a woman and he isn't out to some of his family. I reckon he is actually bi sexual.
Anyway, we dated and got on so well, dating for 6 months. We shared days out together, stayed at each others homes and had time away. He said "I hope this goes somewhere."
We were committed, long term and exclusive. However after 6 months I kept wanting the talk about what we are. I told him I love him but only got back "I really, really like you."
Asking if we are in a relationship he said he doesn't like to label things as labels create expectations. If we were to enter a relationship he'd be worried he'd let me down as with his work he might not be able to meet up as often as I'd want to.
I ended it as I'm looking for a relationship. Foolishly (?!?) we started talking again as friends. I really do like him but don't understand his mind. He admits that he beats about the Bush in conversation and finds it difficult to open up.
Is he a commitment phobe, scared to be gay or what...?
